Cold weather and the left arm of Arkansas' Kacey Murphy made for a long day for the Gamecocks in game one of a doubleheader versus the Razorbacks. Murphy held Carolina without a baserunner until the first batter of the seventh inning when second baseman Justin Row picked up a single. Reliever Matt Cronin took over Murphy at that point and retired the final three USC batters. Arkansas scored a run in the second off USC starter Adam Hill when second baseman Carson Shaddy launched a home run to left center. Shaddy would also score the game's other run, when he was hit by a pitch from Hill, moved to third on a single by Dominic Fletcher and scored on a wild pitch from Carolina reliever John Gilreath. The loss made the series a split so far with the second game of the doubleheader to be the series clincher.
